API

isValid(value) -> Boolean

Check requirements.
Returns if the Luhn check digit is valid.

Required

• Value must be not Null
• Value must be of type String

generate(value) -> String

Check requirements.
Returns the Luhn check digit appended to the value.

Required

• Value must be not Null
• Value must be of type String

getRemainder(value) -> Number

Does NOT check requirements.
Returns the Luhn remainder.
